Help with new download OS X 10.6.8. / itunes V 10.7 / iphone 5

Hi All
I have just got the new iphone 5, updated all the software on my macbook and then tried to download itunes V 10.7. I can;t do this due to the OS being 10.5.8 currently.
I have searched and looked for an update and can;t find one.
Does this mean I need to buy an update and if so which one - or is there a free download I can update
Many many thanks

Hello,
For version 10.7 of iTunes you would need Mac OS X 10.6.8 or Higher installed.
There are no free downloads as Mac OS X 10.5.8 is the most updated version of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard you can get. You would need to install Mc OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, which can be purchased at some online retail outlets like Amazon.
The only other alternative is the latest version of Mac OS X 10.8, but I surspect  your using an early MacBook which many not be compatible with the latest version, plus you would need the Apps store app installing and to do that you would need Mac OS X 10.6.8
So at the moment your best option is to install a retail copy of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Best of Luck

  • Help with new download of CC.  Error message

    Every time I use the quick selection tool, I get an error message "Could not use quick selection tool because of program error".  Anybody see this before.

    First of all, you cannot buy Adobe fonts, but rather you license them.
    Assuming that you are referring to OpenType fonts, such fonts may be readily installed by either dragging and dropping the .otf font file into the Fonts Control Panel window or by right clicking on the .otf file and selecting the install function.
    Although Adobe has done some minor updates to their fonts over the years, there have generally not been any available update or upgrade programs for them. The same is true for other major font vendors.
    Windows 7 64-bit in conjunction with Internet Explorer 10 seems to work perfectly fine for me <http://www.adobe.com/type>.
    Do you have Adobe Flash installed on your system? I believe that the website works without it, but that may be the problem.

  • Hard drive crash need help with new iTunes load and backup files

    I have looked through the posts and not found my situation.
    I had my iPhone synced to a PC computer and the hard drive crashed. I had an extensive library in iTunes, but none of the music was purchased online so I can't simply download it again. It was all from CD's, many of which belonged to friends. I now have an iMac. The music I like is still on my iPhone, but not on my new iMac. When I try to sync the iPhone with my iMac it wants to delete all the music on my iPhone. Is there any way to copy the music off my iPhone first - so I can add it back into my iTunes library?

    Yes, luckily I have been in this situation.
    You can download a free application that will take your music from your iPhone and place it onto your Macintosh HD.
    One of these should suit your needs:

  • Help with new hard drive and data recovery

    I have a macbook pro 13" from early 2011...last week the hard drive crashed and after a few hours at the genius bar had to got  tekserv to recover my data and get a new hard drive and update to 8GB of Ram.  When I got my macbook back I was given an external hard drive that had everything from my old hard drive saved by the users on the old hard drive.  I was hoping I could just transfer the user over to the new hard drive but since I had to restart the computer as a new computer I am not able to just reassign my old profile as the new one on this laptop.  Maybe I've done something wrong but at this point I transferred all my documents over, moved my music and pictures over but I have a few things I can't figure out that I'm hoping someone can help with.
    1. Do emails that were in my mail program from both gmail and my verizon.net program get saved somewhere or do I have to just assume those were lost?
    2. my iTunes library is now there but none of my playlists are there.  Should those have been saved somewhere in my iTunes folder that I should see them?  I'm concerned about syncing my iPhone or iPads to iTunes without those there.
    thanks for the help.

  • Can any one help with new iOS 7.1 update?

    Hello,
    I have recently downloaded the iOS 7.1 update and it has being causing problems with the iPhone 4s. The problems are as follows;
    No Wi-Fi connection all, and in full range of a connection (If and when I connect its for 10 seconds and gone again)
    Battery Life depleting quickly
    iPhone freezes constantly
    iPhone getting extremely hot when not in use.
    Is there anything that I can do that can help with this or will I have to wait for the next iOS update?
    Kieran

    If I restore as new without the backup & everything seems to be fine, I assume I would then have to restore it from my latest backup in iTunes in order to get all (or at least most) of my data back.
    From what I have read, it looks like at least the music I have on my iPhone 4S that I put there from a CD I own would not be in my backup.  That is not a major problem, since it is only 1 CD.
    It also seems like the iTunes backup is more complete than the iCloud backup (I do have both).
    So, I should probably be restoring from that backup.
    Is there anything else that is not backed up in an iTunes backup that I should consider before I do that?
    When I backup in iTunes (or even in iCloud), some items not backed up?
    Wouldn't I then have to re-install those items that are not in my backups?
    I have a Medical app from my local ambulance operator where I have taken a ton of time to input all of my medical information going back numerous years.  I just got tired of some medical person constantly asking me for information one never really makes a point of remembering.  Now, I have all of that information in my iPhone 4S.
    There is no way I would want to reinstall that app & re-input all of that information again.
    I also put a lot of "lists" in the Notes area on my iPhone 4S.
    I understand that is also something that is not backed up.
    These are just 2 examples.
    I also have other items that I am under the impression also are not backed up.
    Losing any of that information would be a huge burden to recover.
    I am willing to take a chance with some items that are not backed up to either iTunes nor iCloud.
    But, knowlingly doing something that may lose that information is not something I am willing to do.
    OR, am I just not understanding what is and is not backed up in iTunes or iCloud & what I could potentially lose?

  • Replace files with newer download files on NB100?

    Just got the NB100 for my daughter and we both love it to bits:)
    I'm doing the update and it's found 129 updates and after downloading, it's asking me at various points if I'd like to keep a modified file or replace it with the newer downloaded file.
    What do I do?

    I just went ahead and replace everything with newer versions and everything worked apart from the sound. two lines of typing at the terminal screen fixed this and everything now works!

  • Search help with new selection within if more than 500 entries

    Dear all,
    I created a new search help and this works fine ... If I compare my search help with a default search help from SAP,  I have 1 small feature that not seems to work ... With the default one, it is possible to make a new selection within the search help by clicking on the arrow down :
    If I look at my search help, I don't have the possibility to make a new selection :
    Does anyone how this can be done ?
    Thanks in advance !
    Greetz,
    Kurt.

    HI,
    Here are the general steps to get you started.
    1. Identify the search help being used (on the ship-to-party field, F1 then Tech Info). I believe you want the collective search help SD_DEBI.
    2. Create your own search help with the fields you want to use with SE11, like 'ZDEBI' as an example.
    3. Append 'ZDEBI' to SD_DEBI. (Goto->Append Search Help).
    4. Clean things up by "Hiding" the old search help. In the 'Included Search Help' tab of the collective search help SD_DEBI, there is a check box that you can tick to hide included search helps.

  • Help With New Hard Drive Installation Recovery

    I had a bad hard drive crash. I installed a new one and got the bios to boot from the cd drive, with the windows 7
    orginal install cd in the drive.  It recognized Drive 0, I clicked new in the options. It created ONE System partition.
    Installed windows 7 seemingly fine. Inserted the application and driver recovery disk and installed those. It all seemed fine. This morning I turned it on and it the hard drive error message (3F0) please install an operating system. I shut it down and restarted, it seemed normal.  I installed a few programs, shut it down again. Returned to it later, started it up again and it took me to the diagnostic screen telling me SMART Check - Not Installed and Short DST - Not Installed..  Can someone tell me how to delete that partition and I can format the drive in a usb sata enclosure and start over again.
    Please tell me the correct proceedure to get this laptop back up and running to a factory state. I have original Windows7 and Windows8  and Application and Driver disks for both OS'es..  I want to stay with the Windows7 installation.
    Thanks for any help with this problem. I have no idea where I went wrong !
    This question was solved.

    It is not impossible that the new hard drive is bad, have seen it before. It is also possible that the sata controller on motherboard is bad-but I would look at that possibilty last. Can you get an exchange on the new hdd?

    Like many I experienced some issues when updating to iOS 5 (on launch day). I finally gave up on the Update option and chose the Restore option.
    iOS 5 downloaded and installed without issue. I restored from Back Up and everything was in place. No errors.
    If you are updating, try using Restore instead.
